The core of such smug nonsense usually boils down to "But I want".
It's annoyingly simple.
"I hope you get the help you need." I say as I shake with the meat sweats and demand the Earth rots in ecological collapse because my dead flesh addicted body can't handle not being 100% stuffed with the carcasses of baby animals for less than five seconds.
utterly depends on unlimited access to slaughtered animals.
It annoys me so much how people forget we aren't fucking carnivores.
As a species, we eat too much meat. That's a fact. We eat more meat products than is healthy for an omnivore to consume. It's giving us heart disease and all sorts of hormone issues. Carnists will act like having milk and egg or flesh for every meal is normal and healthy and it simply isn't. I'm not even going to shit on people for eating a little meat if it's ethically sourced, but it's the absolute slovenly excess to the point where they're willing to harm their own body and the ecosystem that gets me. What is that other than an addict?

Even if someone believes there's such a thing as ethical meat (I don't), the muh ethical meat from muh uncle's farm thing is just a red herring that no carnists actually do. It'd be easier to just be vegan than only find and eat ”ethically sourced” meat.
Welp. I can't argue there. True. I have a bad habit of conflict avoidance sometimes. Old lib habits die hard.

https://yourveganfallacyis.com/en/humane-meat (emphasis mine) :
It is normal and healthy for people to empathize with the animals they eat, to be concerned about whether or not they are living happy lives and to hope they are slaughtered humanely. However, if it is unethical to harm these animals, then it is more unethical to kill them.
So you say "But if we just cut meat production, we would reduce the green house gases of food production by 60%!" Well in less then 80years, the population of the earth is projected to be ~11billion. That is ~50% more people and thus 50% more greenhouse gases emitted from food. So now what do you now?
Hard fuckin fail. Wow. Did they even read what they wrote?
You'd think a reddit logic bro would be able to do some arithmetic!
Human culture is when a net 40% decrease is actually a net increase! What now, antihuman vegan?
That was infuriating to read, especially when that person seemed to think the only food people can eat is meat and jumped to some baffling conclusions. ”So you want humans to not have food? Why do you want most of the world's population dead, Hitler!?”
I've started assuming that every ”But I like eating meat and don't even care that animals suffer” comment is made because of cognitive dissonance. It just annoys me that carnists think it's so bad for them to occasionally be reminded of how bad for the environment their diet is and how animals suffer and die for it, especially they themselves keep pointing out that it's 100% normalized by our society and almost none of them will ever get any pushback for eating meat except for maybe having to read some posts online about how eating meat is bad.
